The PopTech Impact Fund
A new mechanism to engage and support PopTech’s visionary programs



PopTech is a renowned thought-leadership and social innovation network with a unique mission: to accelerate the positive impact of world-changing people, projects and ideas.
We achieve this mission by bringing together some of the world’s leading scientists, innovators, corporate and non-profit leaders, policy-makers, philanthropists and creative thinkers. We then foster their deep collaboration on high-impact, multidisciplinary projects that change the world. We also train the next generation of social innovators and scientists in new ways to accelerate their impact. And we produce powerful media to galvanize further change.
PopTech has affected millions of lives, transformed the trajectories of social innovators, shaped the innovation agenda and won international recognition in the press; and our most promising initiatives lie ahead.
We cannot fulfill this promise without the investment, collaboration and support of a network of visionary individuals and organizations. We invite you to join this network by becoming a supporting member of the PopTech Impact Fund.
Members of the Impact Fund make an investment in PopTech’s future, form a trusted advisory network with a deeper connection with our organization, and receive a suite of benefits described below. The Impact Fund enables PopTech to build the organizational infrastructure required to ensure the long-term sustainability and impact of our work, to invest in new programs, and to create innovative new approaches to fulfilling our mission; 100% of contributions to the Fund are used for this purpose.
Here’s How It Works:
Membership in the Impact Fund is available to individuals for a minimum annual investment of $5,000, and to organizations for a minimum annual investment of $15,000. All members receive the following:
- Early, confidential briefings on PopTech programs in development
- Invitations to private PopTech dinners and special events
- Prioritized, space-available registration for all PopTech programs
- (Optional) acknowledgment on our website and printed programs
- One registration to the annual PopTech conference
- The ability to purchase additional registrations at a discounted rate
Additional benefits are available to members who make significantly larger investments, and are available upon request.

Membership in the Impact Fund is a powerful way to align yourself and/or your organization with the cutting-edge work of PopTech, to help influence our future direction, and to deepen your relationship with a network of remarkable people. Investments in the Impact Fund are tax deductible (excluding the value of PopTech conference registration received as a complimentary benefit of membership).
